"Lipstick On Your Collar" 

(yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) 
(yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) 

When you left me all alone at the record hop, 
Told me you were goin’ out for a soda pop. 
You were gone for quite a while, half an hour or more. 
You came back and man oh man this is what I saw: 

Lipstick on you collar, told a tale on you.
Lipstick on you collar, said you were untrue. 
Bet your bottom dollar, you and I are through. 
Cause, lipstick on you collar told a tale on you. 

You said it belonged to me, made me stop and think. 
Then I noticed yours was red, mine was baby pink. 
Who walked in but Mary Jane, lipstick all a mess. 
Were you smoochin’ my best friend? Guess the answer's, yes.

Lipstick on you collar, told a tale on you.
Lipstick on you collar, said you were untrue. 
Bet your bottom dollar, you and I are through.
Cause, lipstick on you collar told a tale on you, boy. 
Told a tale on you, man. 

Told a tale on you, yeah.

"Where The Boys Are"

Where the boys are, someone waits for me. 
A smilin' face, a warm embrace, 
two arms to hold me tenderly. 

Where the boys are, my true love will be.
He's walkin' down some street in town, 
and I know he's lookin' there for me. 

In the crowd of a million people, I'll find my valentine. 
And then I'll climb to the highest steeple, 
and tell the world he's mine. 

Till he holds me, I'll wait impatiently. 
Where the boys are, where the boys are, 
Where the boys are, someone waits for me. 

Till he holds me, I'll wait impatiently. 
Where the boys are, where the boys are, 
Where the boys are, someone waits for me.



"Stupid Cupid"

Stupid Cupid you're a real mean guy.
I'd like to clip your wings, so you can't fly. 
I'm in love, and it's a crying shame.
And I know that you're the one to blame. 
Hey-hey, set me free. 
Stupid Cupid, stop pickin' on me. 

I can't do my homework and I can't think straight. 
I meet him every morning 'bout a half past eight. 
I'm acting like a lovesick fool.
He's even got me carryin' his books to school. 
Hey-hey, set me free. 
Stupid Cupid, stop pickin' on me.

You mixed me up but good, right from the very start. 
Hey, go play Robin Hood with somebody else's heart. 

You got me jumpin' like a crazy clown. 
And I don't feature what you're puttin' down. 
Since I kissed his lovin' lips of wine, 
The thing that bothers me is that I like it fine. 
Hey-hey, set me free.
Stupid Cupid, stop pickin' on me.

You got me jumpin' like a crazy clown,
And I don't feature what you're puttin' down. 
Since I kissed his lovin' lips of wine, 
The thing that bothers me is that I like it fine. 
Hey-hey, set me free. 
Stupid Cupid, stop pickin' on me.

Hey, Hey, set me free. 
Stupid cupid, stop pickin on me!


"Vacation" 
V-A-C-A-T-I-O-N in the summer sun 

Put away the books, we're out of school 
The weather's warm but we'll play it cool 
We're on vacation, havin' lots of fun 
V-A-C-A-T-I-O-N in the summer sun 

We're gonna grab a bite at the pizza stand 
Write love letters in the sand 
We're on vacation and the world is ours 
V-A-C-A-T-I-O-N under summer stars 

Yeah, we'll hop in a jalopy to a drive-in movie 
and never look at the show 
We're gonna hug and kiss just like this 
and I can't wait to go, go, go 

We're gonna mashed potato to a jukebox tune 
Park your car 'neath an August moon 
We're on vacation till the start of the fall 

V-A-C-A-T-I-O-N, we're gonna have a ball, go!! 

V-A-C-A-T-I-O-N, gonna have a ball 

Uh-huh, we'll hop in a jalopy to a drive-in movie 
and never look at the show 
We're gonna hug and kiss just like this 
and I can't wait to go, go, go 

We're gonna mashed potato to a jukebox tune 
Park your car 'neath an August moon 
We're on vacation till the start of the fall 

V-A-C-A-T-I-O-N, we're gonna have a ball, yeah 

FADE 
V-A-C-A-T-I-O-N, (yeah) gonna have a ball
 


"Many Tears Ago" 
They said your cheating heart would make me cry 
And like a fool I gave it a try 
I should've listened when they told me so 
Many many tears ago 

But I could not believe the things they said 
Because my heart over ruled my head 
I should've listened when they told me so 
Many many tears ago 

I laughed out loud when they told me 
That you had someone else 
But your cheating heart has shown me 
That I was foolin myself 

I know it's too late for a brand new start 
For I have cried you out of my heart 
I should've listened when they told me so 
Many many tears ago 

I laughed out loud when they told me 
That you had someone else 
But your cheating heart has shown me 
That I was foolin myself 

I know it's too late for a brand new start 
For I have cried you out of my heart 
I should've listened when they told me so 
I should've listened when they told me so 
Many many tears ago
 


(spoken): Frankie, where ever you are, I love you.
Oh oh oh oh ho, Oh oh oh ho

Though you've found a new love, 
I still miss you so 
I just can't forget you, 
But you'll never know 
Frankie, my darling, 
I'll never let you see me cry 

Once I was your sweetheart, 
now I'm just a friend 
Once you really loved me, 
now I just pretend 
Frankie, my darling, 
I'll never let you see me cry 

Oh, Frankie, 
I'd rather hide these teardrops deep down inside 
I'm crying, 
But you'll never see I'd rather cry than have you pity me 

Though my nights are lonely 
Since you went away 
I'll always keep this secret 
Deep within my heart 
Frankie, my darling 
I'll never let you see me cry 

(spoken): Frankie, where ever you are, I love you

 


"My Happiness"
Evening shadows make me blue
When each weary day is through
How I long to be with you -- my happiness

Every day I reminisce
Dreaming of your tender kiss
Always thinking how I miss -- my happiness

A million years it seems
Have gone by since we shared our dreams 
But I'll hold you again,
There'll be no blue memories then

Whether skies are gray or blue
Any place on earth will do
Just as long as I'm with you -- my happiness

Whether skies are gray or blue
Any place on earth will do
Just as long as I'm with you -- my happiness 
 


"Second Hand Love"
They tell me that theres someone else you really truly love
And even when we kiss that shes the one youre thinking of
I guess its true cause once or twice you called me by her name
I need you so but now I know that you dont feel the same
Its all over town, youve put me down
A second hand love, a second hand love

Though late at night I sit alone and count the tears that fall
Id rather have this kind of love than not see you at all
My friends all say Im better off if we should drift apart
But every day I hope and pray Ill be first in your heart
Its all over town, youve put me down
Im a second hand love, a second hand love
Just a second hand love, a second hand love



Well!  That was fun, wasn't it?
